As usual with this match up, Itachi can't hit Minato and Minato can't damage Itachi through Susanoo. So whoever lasts longer wins, and that's obviously Minato due to superior stamina and the fact Itachi needs to hold up Susanoo to prevent being killed by Hiraishin blitz.

Considering Minato was dead looking Obito in his eyes beforethis
happened, I think it's safe to say Minato might fall for Tsukuyomi tho

Thx for your response.

3TS precog is pretty OP, I think Itachi might be able to react to a possible bamflash.

You can't see where he's looking. All you see is that he's looking at Obito's face. Not his eyes.

Nope. If he can blitz Obito before he can use Kamui to go ghost mode again there's no way Itachi will react and counter, especially since 3-Tomoe precog only matters when you are looking at the target. A back attack renders precog useless.

Clearly making eye contact.

Again, all you can see is him looking directly at Obito's face. Not directly at Obito's eye. What he did in that scenario is irrelevant anyway, because this is a different opponent with a different moveset thus Minato will have a different approach.

I see...
That makes sense.

Ms cannot predict even a weaker version of FTG --- (Tobirama's). There is no way it can detect Minato's.

Minato wins, as he always does in this match-up. Itachi literally needs MS to not die, and we all know how long he's going to be able to spam MS techs.

Could go either way. Itachis best way of winning is forcing eye contact with ephemeral
